Comments on: Climate Scientists and the Riemann Hypothesis http://climateaudit.org/2008/07/07/climate-scientists-and-the-riemann-hypothesis/ by Steve McIntyre Sat, 18 May 2013 05:07:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Skiphil http://climateaudit.org/2008/07/07/climate-scientists-and-the-riemann-hypothesis/#comment-391154 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 19:06:29 +0000 http://www.climateaudit.org/?p=3249#comment-391154 Michael Mann continues to celebrate and promote his Hockey Stick even now, in 2013:

What did Talleyrand say of the Bourbons of the Ancien Regime,

“they have learned nothing and have forgotten nothing”

In Mann’s case one may wonder what if anything he has learned in the past decade.

No mathematician reads the journal for professional reasons (unless working in some very applied area).

I’m a professional mathematician and it’s now *absolutely necessary* to go to the blogs to find out what is going on. (By the blogs I mean those like Terry Tao’s & so on.)

(btw, thanks also to whoever bumped the thread.)

Steve: I ask people to refrain from angry posts. Instead of praising angriness, I’d appreciate it if you asked people to tone it down.
